go boy
Some nice action captured in this one Margarett.If you have Photoshop or Elements have you considered making a selection of the body of the man/woman and also the marker bouy on a seperate layer and lightening it a little as they are both in shadow. It may give the image more of a focal point.

Blue Tit
Some nice natural b/g Ian but the large view shows some lack of detail in the Bluetit probably due to 1/30 sec shutter speed and maybe towards the longer end of the lens.I'm sure you are still getting used to the camera but the 7D is capable of producing good images at iso's of well over 1000 so maybe a higher iso choice to give a more acceptable shutter speed would be a better way of achieving a sharper image.

KingFisher
Nice attempt at Kingfisher Harvey,Did you consider cropping a little from the left of the image so that the Kingfisher isn't so central but leaves space to the right for it to look into.
Also the image could probably be improved if your using photoshop or elements by duplicating the layer and then using Shadows/Highlights move the Shadows to about 70% to clean up the image a little.
Hope this helps,

Peacock Butterfly
Some nice detail captured in this Peacock Neil,Did you consider a crop to put the butterfly nearer to the bottom left of the frame and then add a little guassian blur to take away some of the flower to the top left so the eye would be concentrated on the butterfly to make a stronger composition,
Hope you don't mind the suggestion,
Graham.

Heron
Nice attempt at the heron Dan,Maybe a different choice of iso/aperture would have helped to produce a sharper image,
On a 300mm lens at 30ft you could open the lens right up and increase the iso to 200 or even 400 to increase the shutter speed and improve the detail.
This isn't meant as critism but hopefully to help you improve your images,

Poised for flight .....
Nice composition Sylvia but the crop has introduced a significant amount of noise compared to the original. I've added a mod with a brief explanation of what's been done.Graham.

another blue tit
Nice composition Kieran,The image looks as if it's been shot through a window, if you're using Photoshop try duplicating the layer (Ctrl+J) then using shadows/highlights, set the highlights to between 30-50% and you should find the opaque look on the image is much reduced.
Hope this helps.

Market Street
Nice image of a Cornish street James just slightly let down with the sloping edge on the left, i've uploaded a mod with the verticals straightened, also the image is only 600pixels wide, as an Epz member you can upload at 1000pixels which would make the large view better, Hope this helps,

Full Moon
From the information you have given it looks as if the shot was taken with no exposure compensation and the moon has become over exposed and lost most of it's detail, as the moon is set against a dark sky try adjusting you're exposure to -2/3 or -1 ev and you should find the moon is better exposed and shows more detail.Hope this helps.
